(1/1)
Isleofmanbusa:
I have just started my 1441 dry build and a quick question how far down the hole do I want the pistons I will be using a 100 shot of nitrous ,thay are heavy duty cp pistons made for nitrous ,I thaught abought 40" down the hole is this correct or am I way off ,hope some one can help
RansomT:
Static Compression?
Typically, on a moderate compression piston, you would want somewhere around a 40 thousands quench area, which includes the thickness of the head gasket.
Redline103:
Putting the piston in the hole .040 would give you around .070 quench which would have you giving up a lot of HP on motor for no good reason. I would recommend you go with the advise above which will give you a better all around combo. :tu:

Spot on thanks for help motor now built and for a mild compression motor made good power 219 bhp 127 ftlbs of torque now for the nitrous
